Lyrics

Blessed is your face, blessed is your name, my beloved. Blessed is your smile, which makes my soul want to fly, my beloved. All the nights and all the times that you cared for me. But I never realized it, and now it's too late, forgive me. Now I'm alone, filled with so much shame, for all the years I caused you pain. If only I could sleep in your arms again, mother, I'm lost without you. You were the sun that brightened my day, now who's gonna wipe my tears away? If only I knew what I know today, mother, I'm lost without you. Ben derdi kimes söyleyem, sensiz amanam. Senin kadrini hiç bilemedim ben, aziz anam. Rasul buyurdu cennet anaların ayakları altında. Senin hayalim kalbimde, ruhumda, rüyalarımda. Sen gittiğinde canım gitti, ayrılık bir yaman derdi. Dünya bana cefa etti, beni aziz anam. Ağlarım ben bulut gibi, delimdesin şarkı gibi. Günahlarım derin derin, hak et adalet anam.
